Original Lyrics by Lloyd Harris
12 Flying Longhorn - Begin To See The Light - Build A Bridge - Carnival Of Souls
Corporate Nazis - Just Passin' Thru - Life Going By - Light Up - Maddog - Mojo Divine
Roadside Distraction - Suzi Suicide - Taste The Wine - The Undertaker
When I Was A Rebel - When It All Turns Around - Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda
12 Flying Longhorn
A storm was a brewin’
Down on the farm
When lightning had struck
And burned down the barn
Then I saw the twister
Tearin’ up the corn
In the sky across the field
Twelve flying longhorn
So I jumped off the trailer
Made a mad dash
I head for the cellar
Debris kicked my ass
I’m runnin’ on air
Straight up the spout
Tore off my clothes
‘Fore the bitch last spit me out
Do the Texas two step twister smash
Via flyin’ longhorn
Get your trailer trashed
Do the Texas two step twister smash
Via flyin’ longhorn
Get your trailer trashed
oh yeah... oh yeah
Spinning in vertigo
Tryin’ to pray
Set me down gently
Three miles away
Now I’m all bruised and naked
But very much alive
I sang “Purple Haze” streaking home
Cuz I kissed the sky
So if you’re ever out working
Late at night
When the wind starts whistling
It gives you a freight
Take heed, take shelter
If the sky’s green and black
Or end up like twelve flyin’ longhorn
Who never came back
Do the Texas two step twister smash
Via flyin’ longhorn
Get your trailer trashed
Do the Texas two step twister smash
Via flyin’ longhorn
Get your trailer trashed
Do the Texas two step twister smash
Via flyin’ longhorn
Get your trailer trashed
Do the Texas two step twister smash
Via flyin’ longhorn
Get your trailer trashed
oh yeah... oh yeah
oh yeah... oh yeah
Begin To See The Light
co-written by Marv Coughlin, Bob Green and Sean Merrins
The sun’s in the sky
Don’t turn away
All of your life
Rests on this day ...oh yeah
No more heartache and sorrow
And no more pain
All the tears that you’ve cried
Have drove you insane ...oh yeah
Don’t know what to do
Don’t know what to say
Lost in the words
Lost in yesterday
Don’t know what to do
Don’t know what to say
Lost in the words
Lost in yesterday
Cuz everything you do
Comes right back on to you
Could you make a sacrifice
And everything you say
Every moment of each day
In this game of life
Begin to see the light
Begin to see the light
My mind is racing ‘round
I don’t know what to say
All of the pain I’ve caused you
Just won’t go away ...oh yeah
All of your life
Just rests on this day
Cuz all of the tears you’ve cried
Have drove you insane ...oh yeah
Don’t know what to do
Don’t know what to say
Lost in the words
Lost in yesterday
Don’t know what to do
Don’t know what to say
Lost in the words
Lost in yesterday
Cuz everything you do
Comes right back on to you
Could you make a sacrifice ...all right
And everything you say
Every moment of each day
In this game of life
Begin to see the light
Begin to see the light
My mind is racing ‘round
I don’t know what to say
Don’t know what to do
Don’t know what to say
Lost in the words
Lost in yesterday
Don’t know what to do
Don’t know what to say
Lost in the words
Lost in yesterday
Cuz everything you do
Comes right back on to you
Could you make a sacrifice ...all right
And everything you say
Every moment of each day
In this game of life
You begin to see the light
You begin to see the light
Begin to see the light
Begin to see the light
Build A Bridge
I never went to the crossroads
Could be why I’m still here.
But it’s all well and fine now, God’s will is made clear.
Cuz’ no still means no, as the poet asks why?
Though my name it means nothing.
I bear this cross till I die.
I bear this cross till I die.
There’s a 4 corner swamp, just right near my place.
Down Whiskey to 56, and bring your guitar in case.
Yeah, I’m sure you heard the story,
And how the deal did go.
But what profit a man to gain the world
To lose his very soul.
To lose his very soul.
Take nothing for granted.
Spend time with your kids.
When troubles spring up,
Let love Build A Bridge.
As the blessings be granted,
For all are His.
If it fell apart tomorrow,
Watch love Build A Bridge.
Watch God Build A Bridge.
Cuz, He heard my prayers,
And those of many others.
So now I’m here to tell y’all,
My sisters and brothers.
His might makes right,
His wisdom is power.
And protection from all evil,
In your darkest hour.
In your darkest hour.
Carnival Of Souls
co-written by Eric Vanden Eykel
Our peace don’t come easy
In a world gone wrong
Gotta guard what we have
Stand up and be strong
And faith is hard to come by
In a world gone bad
Call The Pope or your lawyer
Hey, I’ll call my Dad
Never let freedom of speech
To be torn down like rags
Oh brother you’ve crossed the line
If you try to burn this flag
So screw all you faggots
And all you liberal queers
Shove political correctness
Up your f@#king rears
If I told you once, I told you twice
Take or leave it, this is my advice
It’s a carnival of souls
Take the path or walk the coals
And feel the burn
Feel the burn
It’s a carnival of souls
Take the path or walk the coals
And feel the burn
Feel the burn
You can’t please everybody
Go try if you wanna
If Jesus couldn’t do it
I sure the hell ain’t gonna
And I’m not one to preach
Probably f$@k up more that you
God knows I’m far from perfect
Grace and love will get me through
If I told you once, I told you twice
Take or leave it, this is my advice
It’s a carnival of souls
Take the path or walk the coals
And feel the burn
Feel the burn
If I told you once, I told you twice
Take or leave it, this is my advice
It’s a carnival of souls
Take the path or walk the coals
And feel the burn
Feel the burn
It’s a carnival of souls
Take the path or walk the coals
And feel the burn
Feel the burn
Feel the burn
Feel the burn
Corporate Nazis
The music biz is a whore
She’ll boot your ass out zee door
34, 35, that bitch, she don’t want you no more
That bitch is older than me
And that’s an obvious fact
Ain’t she like the pot callin’ the kettle black
Ain’t she like the pot callin’ the kettle black
She lets the suits run the show
And all their picks fuckin’ blow
'Nuff said, gotta ‘nother gig, I live to play rock-n-roll
Before your M.T.V.
It had some integrity
But greed and power overtook the hour for the “Corporate Nazis”
But greed and power overtook the hour for the “Corporate Nazis”
The music biz is a whore
I’d boot her ass out zee door
Now that there's MP3
It has some integrity
But greed and power overtook the hour for the “Corporate Nazis”
But greed and power overtook the hour for the “Corporate Nazis”
The music biz is a whore
The music biz is a whore
The music biz is a whore...
Just Passin’ Thru
(See Ya Tomorrow)
Every single one of us,
We’re all Just Passin’ Thru.
You see this crystal clear
When someone dies
Who’s close to you.
Every single one of us
Will answer to our savior.
And did you come to know Him
And follow His behavior?
“Everyone”_________(x3)
His gift is an invitation
To find our peace of mind,
When the day is, Done______
Here to Kingdom, Come_____
Each and every one of us
A vapor trail thru time.
Some wander throughout their lives
Ignoring all the signs.
It’s true, some are mathematicians
and some are carpenter’s wives.
God knows how it all got started
And what we do with our lives.
“Everyone”_________(x3)
His gift is an invitation
To find our peace of mind,
When the day is, Done______
Here to Kingdom, Come_____
Lord, fly me to your mansion in the sun. (x2)
When the day is, Done______
Lord, fly me to your mansion in the sun.
You’re never ready for that phone call
And the news it has in store.
Cuz lately death’s been dancing
Way too close to my front door.
It might be superstition,
But they say it’ comes in threes.
When the hand of fate comes knockin’,
It takes just whom it please.
“Everyone”_________(x3)
His gift is an invitation
To find our peace of mind,
When the day is, Done______
Here to Kingdom, Come_____
Lord, fly me to your mansion in the sun.
When the day is, Done______
Lord, fly me to your mansion in the sun.
(See Ya Tomorrow)
I’ll always cherish the times and places,
And memories of happy faces.
They’re all I have left besides the empty spaces,
‘Till we meet again.
And on that day I’ll see you.
How the light of the sun shines thru you.
No more tears, pain or sorrow.
Got my ticket home, I’m gonna see ya tomorrow.
Life Going By
Each winter’s getting colder
Or maybe I’m just getting older
Some days are better than others
Hot cup of coffee and I’ll be fine
All my youth was filled with dreams
Lost along the road of life it seems
And I tell myself, to ease the pain
“Age is a state of mind”
Old anvil’s wore out many a hammer
On the grindstone stained with blood
As I sweat and toil to make ends meet
Still the bills come like a flood
Reflecting all my past, when we were young so long ago
But now I’m just a number
Working for the boss man’s all I know
It’s all I know... it’s all I know... all I know...
Years and decades flying faster
Last month fades into last year
And I can’t recall the last time
That I talked to my old friend
But the cold wind of December
Makes me think of last September
All the leaves of fall were turning
As we said our last goodbyes
Old anvil’s wore out many a hammer
On the grindstone stained with blood
As I sweat and toil to make ends meet
Still the bills come like a flood
Reflecting all my past, when we were young so long ago
But now I’m just a number
Working for the boss man’s all I know
It’s all I know... it’s all I know... all I know...
Old anvil’s wore out many a hammer
On the grindstone stained with blood
As I sweat and toil to make ends meet
Still the bills come like a flood
Reflecting all my past, when we were young so long ago
But now I’m just a number
Working for the boss man’s all I know
It’s all I know... it’s all I know... all I know...

Maddog
Bit in the ass by the maddog
Wasn’t seein’ twenty-twenty
Puttin’ around on a rat hog
Hoppin’ bars and pissin’ money
Called up my friend Mogen David
I said leave your maddog at home
Lets all go on out to the cathouse
Where sweet naked nookie roam
When the cat’s away how the mice’ll play
But much to my surprise
The same Maddog bit my feline friend
And shook her creamy thighs.
There’s a bow legged bitch
A hound dog cat and ol’ Mad Dog Vachon
And my friend Mogen David’s
Laying drunk out on the lawn
Someone should call the pound
To pick that dog that bit them up
But some chick just burnt the house down
With her smokin’ buttercup
Well my knees were weak and my back was sore
As I stumbled out the door
And I don’t recall just what we did
But I’m a comin’ back for more
Maddog, she’s a bad dog
MD twenty-twenty and a road hog honey
On a maddog, she’s a bad dog
You’ll be seein’ funny as a cross-eyed bunny
On a maddog
Whether you’re cruisin’ through the city
Or the desolate country side
Or just lost in a residential district
‘Cause you’re driving all pie-eyed
Your maddog’s always welcome
At my fire by the river shore
I’m living in a cardboard box, got a can of beans
Under the bridge on I94
But I’m freer than a gypsy
With my six gun at my side
So my toxic twin and I drink again
To all the good men who have died
By the Maddog, she’s a bad dog
MD twenty-twenty and a road hog honey
On a maddog, she’s a bad dog
You’ll be seein’ funny as a cross-eyed bunny
On a maddog, she’s a bad dog
MD twenty-twenty and a road hog honey
On a maddog, she’s a bad dog
You’ll be seein’ funny as a cross-eyed bunny
Mojo Divine
co-written by Eric Vanden Eykel
I used to think of suicide
More often than I ought
Just blast those voices in my head
One smokin’ pistol shot
Or take a nap in my garage
Just let the motor run
And tell St. Peter at the gate
Heard fishin’ up here’s more fun
Pete told me “Only fish that you will catch
Is an ancient serpent man
He’ll chew you up and spit you out
And shred you while he can
So he sent me back to my garage
Enlightened all the more
Ready to face another day
I woke up and walked out the door
Now lately I sit and ponder
If it wasn’t all a dream
For God works in mysterious ways
Where things ain’t what they seem
Cuz I used to think of suicide
More often than I ought
But now I seek the truth
Mojo divine is what I got
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
It’s a state of mind
I’m not sure what each day will bring
Or where my path shall go
I try to keep in focus now
However high or low
As darts or fire fly at me
Where others still are slain
Light shines down from heavens gate
And helps me dodge the pain
Since I was sent back to my garage
I’m enlightened all the more
Ready to face another day
Ya know life’s not just a chore
Lately I sit and ponder
If it wasn’t all a dream
For God works in mysterious ways
Where things ain’t what they seem
Cuz I used to think of suicide
More often than I ought
But now I seek the truth
Mojo divine is what I got
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Mojo divine
It’s a state of mind
Yeah, it’s a state of mind
Roadside Distraction
Well that girl’s illegal
Street corner pile up
When she walks by... oh my
That girl’s illegal
Street corner pile up
When she walks by... so fine
Somebody call the DMV, yeah
She’s a roadside distraction to the eye
J.D. saw the curves
Straight up ahead
The driver lost control... oh no
J.D. saw the curves
Straight up ahead
The driver lost control... oh no
Then her eyes met with his
Wrapped his car ‘round a big ass telephone pole
I can’t abstain
From rubberneckin’
Her call of the wild’s too strong... like King Kong
I can’t abstain
From rubberneckin’
Her call of the wild’s too strong... like King Kong
Then my wife yells “watch the road”
I swerve and scrape somebody’s blue Nissan
Cuz that girl’s illegal
Street corner pile up
When she walked by... oh my
That girl is illegal
She’s a street corner pile up
When she walked by... oh my
Somebody call the DMV
She’s a roadside distraction to the eye
Well she’s a roadside distraction, baby
Pulling like a magnet on my mind... so fine
Well she’s a roadside distraction, baby
Pulling like a magnet on my mind... so fine
There she goes, she’s out of sight
Here I sit, about to get a traffic fine
Suzi Suicide
Ahhhh Ahhhh
Suzi Suicide queen of the mosh pit
Suzi Suicide queen of the pit
Suzi Suicide queen of the mosh pit
Suzi Suicide queen of the pit
She packs one hell of a slug
Within her hundred proof jugs of lightning

Within her hundred proof jugs it’s frightning
Suzi Suicide queen of the mosh pit
Suzi Suicide queen of the pit
Suzi Suicide queen of the mosh pit
Suzi Suicide she’s queen of the pit

Taste The Wine
I refuse to simply just exist
While life goes by with opportunities missed
Hope I’d never just lay down and die
Without the gumption to get up and try
Get on top, come on, gotta keep the groove
Get on top, come on, wanna watch you move
Come taste the wine, straight from the vine
That sacred fruit will help you ease your mind
Come taste the wine from ‘69
To missionary that Kama-Sutra’s so fine
Girl I see you here and there, from time to time
I can’t shake these thoughts of you, I gotta clear my mind
When one and one make one, with three you best beware
Cuz Hell hath no fury like an angry woman I swear
Get on top, come on, gotta keep the groove
Get on top mamma, wanna watch you move
Get on top, come on, gotta keep the groove
Get on top mamma, wanna watch you move
Come taste the wine, straight from the vine
That sacred fruit will help you ease your mind
Come taste the wine from ‘69
To missionary that Kama-Sutra’s so fine
More stoic than oak sang the bird on the limb
And weathered even wiser so the owl had thought him
Don’t speak in third person, spoke the conscience to the spirit
The world ain’t ready for it, will they ever wanna hear it
Get on top, come on, gotta keep the groove
Get on top mamma, wanna watch you move
Come taste the wine, straight from the vine
That sacred fruit will help you ease your mind
Come taste the wine from ‘69
To missionary that Kama-Sutra’s so fine
The Undertaker
You screwed the other guy
To control your every scam
Just let the fucker die
And take all that you can
You live and lust for money
Made the dollar your god
But no one’s gonna pay your bills
When you’re lowered ‘neath the sod ...yeah
You’ve got one up on you’re neighbor
As you stab him in the back
And tear his name down
To get his woman in the sack
Cuz it’s all about you
With out a conscience or guilt
Tell me how you sleep
In all your shit that you spilt
When your foul black heart
Meets your maker
It’s too late your you boy
You’re with the undertaker
When your foul black heart
Meets your maker
It’s too late your you boy
You’re with the undertaker
You’re goin’ down, down, down
You’re goin’ down, down, down
Arrogance is fantasy
Receiving hatred with cursing
Humility’s reality
And does bring forth blessings
Do you live in Dreamland
Has the Carnival come to town
Cuz ignorance of the truth won’t change the truth
Time’s running down
When your foul black heart
Meets your maker
It’s too late your you boy
You’re with the undertaker
When your foul black heart
Meets your maker
It’s too late your you boy
You’re with the undertaker
You’re goin’ down, down, down
You’re goin’ down, down, down
You’re goin’ down, down, down
When I Was A Rebel
When I was a rebel
Always got in double trouble
And I know that’s when the Devil
Always followed with a shovel
For my grave... for my grave
Just like the hungry lion
Seeking whom he may devour
So I ran into a tower
Full of inner peace and power
We are saved... we are saved
So be sure to have your armor
And your double edged sword
For without them in the valley of the shadows
Come a death you can’t afford
Come a death you can’t afford
Come a death you can’t afford
Come a death you can’t, can’t...
When I was a rebel
Always got in double trouble
And I know that’s when the Devil
Always followed with a shovel
For my grave... for my grave
Just like the hungry lion
Seeking whom he may devour
So ran into a tower
Full of inner peace and power
We are saved... we are saved
So be sure to have your armor
And your double edged sword
For without them in the valley of the shadows
Come a death you can’t afford
Come a death you can’t afford
Come a death you can’t afford
Come a death you can’t, can’t...
When It All Turns Around
Ain’t it funny when it all turns around
Ain’t it funny when it all turns around
On this day a baby is born
And on this day somebody dies
Everyday hearts are broken
Someone lies, somebody cries
Deceit and deception
Get between two old friends
Forgiveness is forgotten
Lets find peace and love again
Cuz the blind lead the blind
Down into the ditch
That’s why my friends it seems
Life’s just a bitch
Cuz the blind lead the blind
Down into the ditch
That’s why my friends it seems
That’s why my friends
This is the begining of the rest of your life
Nobody’s gonna bring you down
Cuz you were always hurting in a world full of strife
Ain’t it funny when it all turns around
Ain’t it funny when it all turns around
Where mundane is murder
Makes dust out o’yer bones
Sweet words are like honey
To restoreth to thy soul
I Am the one with the salt of the earth
I believe in The Lord in the sky
As you hear this song another mother gives birth
As I say this another one dies
And the blind lead the blind
Down into the ditch
That’s why my friends it seems
Life’s just a bitch
Cuz the blind lead the blind
Down into the ditch
That’s why my friends it seems
That’s why my friends
This is the begining of the rest of your life
Nobody’s gonna bring you down
Cuz you were always hurting in a world full of strife
Ain’t it funny when it all turns around
Ain’t it funny when it all turns around
Ain’t it funny when it all turns around, yeah...
Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda
Woulda, coulda, shoulda got your name
Cuz baby ever since we met I’m not the same
How I badly wish I had your number
Cuz woulda, coulda, shoulda’s just a bummer
Woulda, coulda, shoulda made it big
But I chose this lot in life to be my gig
Hind sight’s 20/20, so I’ll be content
Cuz woulda, coulda, shoulda won’t pay the rent
Woulda, coulda, shoulda stayed in school
Higher education would be cool
Imagine where I could have been today
But woulda, coulda, shoulda just can’t stay
Now woulda, coulda, shoulda rolls off my tongue
Just another melody that I have sung
But the worst regret within my heart I have
Is the sweet love that that girl and I won’t have
Is the sweet love that that girl and I won’t have
Is the sweet love that that girl and I won’t have
